Fall Foliage (296/366)

"The clump of maples on the hill,And this one near the door,Seem redder, quite a lot, this yearThan last, or year before;"

StellaDella has been down for the count the last week. The official diagnosis by the pediatrician on Saturday is an upper respiratory infection. She was prescribed azithromycin to fight the infection. Unfortunately, she still couldn’t go to school today. My dad, God bless him, agreed to watch her while HH and I were at work. I dropped her off at his house this morning and saw that the tree planted in the front yard 30+ years ago is once again dressed for fall.
